	http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/RDFCore/20030123-issues/#macgregor-02

Item 13: williams-01

	http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/RDFCore/20030123-issues/#williams-01

  GK's proposal:
	http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-rdfcore-wg/2003Mar/0059.html

  After some discussion it was felt that the words of the proposal
  needed rethinking; that convenience terms such as "RDF Node" should
  be defined in one place only. GK agreed to have another look
  in the light of these comments.


Item 14: pfps-03

  The item remains open until the rest of the document is fixed so that
  LBase translations can be confirmed for accuracy.


Item 15: pfps-04 -05 -06 -07 -10
Item 16: pfps-08

  PatH: genuine bugs PFPS found which have been corrected in the
  editor's draft:
	http://www.coginst.uwf.edu/~phayes/RDF_Semantics_Editors.html

ACTION 2003-03-14#6 (gk) review semantics editor's draft wrt
	changed arising out of pfps-04 -05 -06 -07 -08 -10

ACTION 2003-03-14#7 (jang) review semantics editor's draft wrt
	changed arising out of pfps-04 -05 -06 -07 -08 -10

  WRT item pfps-08, the closing resolution is:
  RDFCore do not accept this comment. The semantics are as intended.
  The text has been clarified to make this clearer.

  RESOLVED (0 abst 0 ag'in)

ACTION 2003-03-14#8 (bwm) update issue list to point to PatH's response
	to PFPS on pfps-08


Item 17: qu-01

  Proposed: this WG resolves that...
  the use of a container membership property or rdfs:member in a triple
  should not be taken as a claim that the subject of the triple is a
  container.

  RESOLVED (0 abst 0 ag'in)

ACTION 2003-03-14#9 (path) respond to qu-01


Item 18: qu-02

  rdfs:member isn't a functional property because functional properties
  are being dealt with by OWL; not RDF's domain.

  Danbri: mozilla would break if this were disallowed.

  Propose: we reject qu-02 (with thanks) on the grounds that (a) the
  suggestion is not necessary; and (b) it might damage the behaviour
  of existing code.

  RESOLVED (0 abst 0 ag'in)

ACTION 2003-03-14#10 (path) respond to qu-02


Item 19: xmlsch-08
	http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/RDFCore/20030123-issues/#xmlsch-08

  DaveB's proposal:
	http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-rdfcore-wg/2003Mar/0077.html

  Proposaed: we accept the comment, and in response DaveB agrees with
  the reasons not to use xsi:type (adding additional ones); point
  at the explanation; give an example of how if someone uses xsi:type by
  mistake and rdf/xml parser would pick up the error.

  RESOLVED (0 abst 0 against)


With a shortage of time the WG proceeded to

Item 24: horrocks-01

  There was quite a bit of discussion on this (see transcript).
  There's sympathy with the need for semantically empty comments
  for use in large-scale ontological engineering; in deployment,
  rdfs:comment is currently used as "description" [danc]

  The discussion moved to email:
ACTION 2003-03-14#11 (path) produce words for a resolution to horrocks-01
